Could do with people to get through the 2ww with!

DH is away and back on Saturday so hoping to test Friday / Saturday at the earliest and don't want to cave sooner

Just incase anyone looks here in the future for reassurance - I got a faint BFP in the late afternoon of 11 DPO and today v faint in morning of 12DPO and stronger (but still faint) in the afternoon.

I seem to get stronger BFP in the afternoons for some reason.

Good luck everyone x

Boymum111 · 05/03/2023 16:02

@JoRobyn BFN again - think I’m out - just going from that and how I’ve felt previously compared to now. Until next month 🥲

Boymum111 · 04/03/2023 09:33

@WonderVibe
@Darcy86

how are you both getting on?

Boymum111 · 04/03/2023 08:26

thanks @JoRobyn hope you’re ok too. Xx

could be early but I’m not just not feeling it either. 10DPO was when I got my BFP with my little boy so feeling deflated and I remember at this stage I was feeling a lot of things and got morning sickness etc very early. Every pregnancy is different so I suppose it’s not the end…but no symptoms at all, in fact I’m full of energy.

I guess we just don’t know yet 🥲

JoRobyn · 04/03/2023 08:19

Same also, I guess could still be early but I feel like it's not for me. Hope you're ok @Boymum111, it really is crushing, you do never know though, seen people here bfn at this stage then bfp xx

Boymum111 · 04/03/2023 08:01

10DPO and BFN here again 🥲

Boymum111 · 03/03/2023 20:52

Oh lovely @JoRobyn i have one gorgeous boy and am so so lucky. The love and longing is there for another though ❤️

JoRobyn · 03/03/2023 15:55

This was cycle 6, and no, 3! Have two wonderful boys 5 and 3 who need their Mum not to be so self absorbed for a week every month haha

Boymum111 · 03/03/2023 15:40

@JoRobyn i totally get it. People say when they gave up trying that’s when they got pregnant as well. You’re right to just think to live in the present, life is too short, but I know that’s easier said than done. When you want something badly it’s hard to let go, but it doesn’t have to be over until you have decided it is!

how many months TTC is this? Is this baby #1 you are trying for?

JoRobyn · 03/03/2023 15:36

I find it so very consuming, I just wonder if it's time to concentrate on what I have and enjoy living in the present again! I hate how this makes me feel

Boymum111 · 03/03/2023 15:21

@JoRobyn BFN too here - also lost hope. Is it end of the road as it’s just too much rn? If not, still hopeful our babies will come 🙏

JoRobyn · 03/03/2023 12:05

So I tested 9dpo with a frer and a boots early, stark neg! Sure am out again, and, if am brutally honest. Really think this is probs the end of the road

Boymum111 · 02/03/2023 23:27

@Darcy86 yep I thought I was feeling nauseous a few days ago but since that I’ve had nothing but tiredness, which isn’t really new…it definitely becomes all consuming, hard to stay distracted from it all day! Keep checking my flo app as if it still isn’t 8DPO 😂

trying to stay positive and whatever will be will be

Darcy86 · 02/03/2023 23:04

@Boymum111 agreed, it becomes all consuming, find it really distracts me from work as well! I dont have any notable symptoms yet, but guess its probably a bit early. How about you?

Boymum111 · 02/03/2023 19:40

Hi @Darcy86 ❤️ welcome to the wait with us! It’s a torture isn’t it, completely dragging in!

do you have any symptoms?

Darcy86 · 02/03/2023 16:28

Hi I just thought I'd jump on as I'm in roughly the same place - think I am 6DPO today and it's really dragging! This next week or so is just going to be constantly symptom spotting I can tell. I don't have the nerves for early testing, it sends me sideways so the earliest I'll test is next Friday. Eeek!

Boymum111 · 02/03/2023 16:10

I think you’re just right: my plan is to do the same as you, keep busy and try not to over test. Easier said than done I know..

are u having any symptoms?

JoRobyn · 02/03/2023 09:16

I'm ok, also bfn on IC strip. I think I'm just going to go away, enjoy the weekend and test when I get back. I really don't want to ruin my time just thinking about this constantly. I think any boozing will be fairly conservative and I'd like to just enjoy myself with my friends rather than just constantly thinking about lines on sticks!

Boymum111 · 02/03/2023 08:20

Hi! So I’m 8DPO and tested…of course BFN. Feeling nothing at all, just tired but really that’s nothing new! Not feeling hopeful, the aftermath of the too early BFN doesn’t help!

how are you? @JoRobyn ?

JoRobyn · 02/03/2023 08:02

How are things everyone?

JoRobyn · 28/02/2023 19:57

I'm 6dpo same as you. Fingers crossed for us both!!

Boymum111 · 28/02/2023 19:55

I see lines every time as well on FRER, it’s driving me crazy. Yes so today should be 6DPO but I have only guesstimated this using the Flo app and CM. My cycles are regular.

are you 7DPO? That’s when I really need restraint not to test as in my head I’m like well implantation could have happened by now?! Just torture myself this way though - If only I had the willpower to wait!

JoRobyn · 28/02/2023 19:47

The boots ones are what I'm going to get this month I think, they don't have the annoying plastic line behind and I just always think I can see a line on a frer!

Are you 6dpo today too?

Boymum111 · 28/02/2023 19:41

Do you recommend any early detection tests that aren’t FRER? So costly

Boymum111 · 28/02/2023 19:38

Sitting googling how early DPO people got their BFP 😂
